The American Mission
Matthew Palmer
After witnessing a devastating incident in Darfur, Alex Baines is stripped of his security clearance and relegated to a desk job. He?s about to resign when his former mentor—now the current Ambassador to the Congo—offers him an opportunity to start over.
But the post isn?t what Alex imagined. The US company Consolidated Mining seems to be everywhere. When a hostage situation involving a survey team arises, Alex is sent in, finding himself in the middle of the conflict with a guerilla leader and Marie Tsiolo, a native geologist on the team.
As violence escalates in the region, Alex struggles to balance the interests of the U. S. with the greater good of the people of the Congo—and somehow stay alive.
